** This Spring Event ShopBop Sale post was updated: 3/2/20

Happy Monday, friends: slightly adjusting my post schedule this week. I normally try to post Mon/Weds/Fri, however, my birthday is on Tuesday (tomorrow!), so I’ll be doing a Mon/Tues/Thurs schedule this week! 

It’s the most, wonderful time of the year: the Shopbop Sale Spring event! Every year, this sale usually falls the week of my birthday, and I have zero complaints. It’s the perfect time to stock up for spring!

As always, there are a lot of really incredible picks from the sale. Shopbop is one of my go-to places to shop because of all of the brands and price points they have available (plus the fast, free shipping!) Here are some staples and trendy pieces that are on my radar for this year’s Shopbop Annual Sale!

Who run the world? Girls.

I’ve gotten to mix and mingle with a lot of female, small-business owners in the eight years that I’ve been blogging. Technically, I’m a small business owner myself, so I know how it feels when someone supports you and your brand. Every single sale, social media share, or recommendation to a friend means the world! After all, when you support a small business, you’re supporting a dream.

If you’re looking to shop small this holiday season (and beyond!), here are a few of my favorite top women owned small businesses that carry some incredible gifts.
